HELP ME 1967 Camaro
Hi I am looking to do an engine swap on my 1967 Camaro as of right now it has a 350 but I want to put this in there.. Can you guys tell me if you think it's a good idea? Or send me a link of the engine you think would be better!
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=370949468434 As of right now I am running 295's in the rear! I have a few question if you guys can please answer them 1 can you guys send me links of a transmission that would run flawlessly with this engine! 2 would I need to do anything else to my car for this engine? 3 what are 0-60 times looking like with this engine and a good transmission? 4. Estimated quarter mile times? Thank you for viewing! I had an issue so it wouldn't let me upload a pic of my car |
I have pretty much the same thing in my 68. not quit the HP, but a little more torque.
I never had it on a track and don't intend to, but I can tell you when you hit the go peddle you better hold on. I have a 4 speed and 3:55 gears and have no problems driving in town traffic. it will lug down to 35 mph in 4th if I have to. as far as doing something else to your car, I wouldn't think so. sb out and a sb going in |
As said, SBC to SBC ought to be fairly simple.
You will have to rewire/extend the alternator hook-up from drvr side to pass side because of the long water pump used. |
This first engine would be able to get your car up and scoot along pretty good.

Thank you! But what do u think about the engine I linked? & if I put that in my Camaro what else besides transmission swap would I have to do?

I don't know why you would need a 4 link unless you are racing. i have complete stock suspension on my 68 and basically have the same engine. gauges needed, oil, water and volts/amps
I am still using the original wiring . been running the car for 3 years without a problem |
